TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a method for forming multiple silicon trenches for MEMS sealing cap wafer and etching mask structure thereof, more particularly, to a method for forming multiple silicon trenches with different depths on MEMS sealing cap wafer.

BACKGROUND

MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) which develops since 1960s is known as a revolutionary high-tech in the 21st century. MEMS is a skillful combination of the microelectronic technology and the micro-mechanical technologies, and MEMS is a new multidisciplinary technology developed in recent years that has a revolutionary impact on the future human life.

The fundamental technologies of MEMS include silicon anisotropic etching technology, silicon/silicon bonding technology, surface micro-machining technology, LIGA technology and the like, and these technologies have become essential core technologies for the research and production of MEMS. In silicon-based MEMS processing technology, the most critical processes mainly include anisotropic etching technique of high aspect ratio, bonding technology and surface sacrificial layer technology and the like. The anisotropic etching technology is the key technology of bulk silicon micro-machining, and dry plasma etching technology has become a mainstream of micro-machining technology. With the development of integrated circuit technology, dry etching of silicon trenches with high aspect ratios is no longer a difficult problem. For example, silicon trenches with desired relatively high aspect ratios can be obtained by using inductively coupled plasma, high density plasma etching equipment, etc. However, when the aspect ratios of the silicon trenches are greater than 2 or the depths of the silicon trenches are greater than 3 μm, the deep trenches previously formed will result in the photoresist subsequently formed being trapped in the deep trenches, making it impossible to use conventional spin coating process to obtain a photoresist plane with uniform thickness on a silicon wafer, thereby subsequent photolithographic process can not function normally. As to a sealing cap wafer for bonding of MEMS, it generally has trenches with many more different depths and widths, the depths of the trenches are up to tens or even hundreds of micrometers (μm), therefore the above phenomenon is more serious. Therefore, there is a need to provide a new method for forming silicon trenches with different depths on MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:

In the multiple silicon trenches forming method for MEMS sealing cap wafer and its etching mask structure of the present invention, the method includes: forming at least two stacked mask layers on MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate; after forming each mask layer, photolithographing and etching the mask layer and all other mask layers beneath the same to form a plurality of etching windows; then etching the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate by using the current uppermost mask layer as a mask; removing the current uppermost mask layer after etching; then repeating the steps of etching the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate and removing the uppermost mask layer until all the mask layers are removed, wherein when the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate is etched, the etching selectivity ratio of the MEMS cap silicon substrate to the mask layer is greater than or equal to 10:1, preferably between 10:1 to 100:1.

FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic flow chart of a multiple silicon trenches forming method for MEMS cap wafer according to this embodiment of the present invention, the method includes:

step S11, providing a MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate;

step S12, forming n stacked mask layers on the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate, after forming each layer, photo etching and etching on the mask layer and all other mask layers beneath the same to form multiple etching windows, wherein n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and any two adjacent mask layers are made of different materials;

Wherein the value of the etching selectivity ratios may be achieved by selecting materials of the mask layers and by adjusting the etching process parameters (for example, the type of etching gases).

The first embodiment is further described below in connection with FIGS. 2 to 9.

Referring to FIG. 2, a MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 is provided, and a silicon oxide layer 101 is formed on the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 as the first mask layer. Wherein the silicon oxide layer 101 may be formed by methods of thermal oxidation or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the like, and has a thickness of 4000 Å˜8000 Å.

Then referring to FIG. 3, photolithographing and etching the silicon oxide layer 101, and the first etching window D1 is formed in the silicon oxide layer 101. Specifically, the etching equipment may be a Rainbow4500 of LAM corporation, and the etching gases may be CF4, CH3F, and Ar.

Then referring to FIG. 4, an aluminum layer 102 is formed on the silicon oxide layer 101 as the second mask layer. Photolithograph and etch the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 beneath the aluminum layer 102 to form the second etching window D2 in the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 beneath the aluminum layer 102. Specifically, the aluminum layer 102 may be formed by method of sputtering or evaporation, and the thickness of the aluminum layer 102 is 3000 Å˜5000 Å. The aluminum layer 102 also fills in the first etching window D1 so that the first window D1 is protected by the covering of aluminum layer 102. The method for forming the second etching window D2 may include: firstly, dry etching the aluminum layer 102 using AM8330 metal etching machine from Applied Materials, Inc. with Cl₂, BCl₃, CF₄, CHF₃ and Ar gases to form the second etching window D2 in the aluminum layer 102; then, etching the silicon oxide layer 101 by Rainbow4500 equipment from LAM corporation so as to form the second etching window D2 in the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 beneath the aluminum layer 102. It should be noted that the second mask layer may also be a silicon nitride layer, which may be formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the like.

Referring to FIG. 5, a photoresist layer 103 is formed on the aluminum layer 102 as the third mask layer, and photolithographing and etching are performed on the photoresist layer 103 and the aluminum layer 102 and silicon oxide layer 101 beneath the photoresist layer 103, to form the third etching window D3 in the photoresist layer 103 and the aluminum layer 102 and silicon oxide layer 101 beneath the photoresist layer 103. Specifically, the photoresist layer 103 may be formed by conventional methods (for example, spin coating and the like) in microelectronic integrated circuit processes, with a thickness of about 2 μm, and the photoresist layer 103 formed also fills in the first etching window D1 and the second etching window D2; then the photoresist layer 103 is patterned and the aluminum layer 102 and the photoresist layer 103 is etched by photolithographing and etching processes, so as to form the third etching window D3 in the photoresist layer 103, the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101. During the process of etching, the first etching window D1 and the second etching window D2 are protected by the photoresist layer 103.

Then referring to FIG. 6, the MEMS cap silicon substrate 100 is etched by using the current uppermost photoresist layer 103 as the mask, i.e., using the third etching window D3 in the photoresist layer 103, the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 as the mask, to form the first silicon trench with a depth of d3. Specifically, the etching may be performed using AMS200 etching equipment from Alcatel corporation, and the etching gases are SF₆ and C₄F₈, wherein the etching process may be Bosch process known in the field of MEMS, i.e., a process in which the silicon etching and the passivation are performed alternately. The depth d3 of the first silicon trench may be set according to the requirements of products, in this embodiment, the depth d3 is 10 μm˜100 μm. In addition, the etching selectivity ratio of the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 to the photoresist layer 103 is greater than 60:1, therefore the photoresist layer 103 is rarely etched during the process of etching. Thereby even though the thickness of the photoresist layer 103 is quite small (for example, less than 2 μm), the depth d3 of the first silicon trench formed may also go up to tens to hundreds microns.

After the first silicon trench is formed by etching, the photoresist layer 103 is removed, and the removal process may be completed by a dry process in an oxygen plasma atmosphere. After the removal of photoresist layer 103, the aluminum layer 102 becomes the current uppermost mask layer.

Referring to FIG. 7, the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 is etched by using the aluminum layer 102 as a mask, i.e., using the second etching window D2 in the aluminum layer 102 and the silicon oxide layer 101 as the mask, to form the second silicon trench with a depth of d2 in the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100, while the depth of the first silicon trench is deepened to d3+d2. The depth d2 of the second silicon trench may be adjusted according to the requirements of products, while in this embodiment, the depth d2 is 10 μm˜80 μm, and d3+d2 is 20 μm˜180 μm. The etching selectivity ratio of the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 to the aluminum layer 102 is greater than 200:1, therefore the aluminum layer 102 is rarely etched during the process of etching. Thereby even though the thickness of the aluminum layer 102 is quite small (for example, less than 2 μm), the depth of the silicon trench formed may also go up to tens to hundreds microns.

After that, the aluminum layer 102 may be removed by a wet process commonly used in the microelectronics integrated circuit process, and the silicon oxide layer 101 is exposed as the uppermost mask layer.

Referring to FIG. 8, the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 is etched by using the silicon oxide layer 101 as a mask, i.e., using the first etching window D1 in the silicon oxide layer 101 as the mask, to form the third silicon trench with a depth of d1 in the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100, while the depth of the first silicon trench is deepened to d3+d2+d1 and the depth of the second silicon trench is deepened to d2+d1. The depth d1 of the third silicon trench may be adjusted according to the requirements of products, while in this embodiment, the depth d1 is 10 μm˜60 μm, d2+d1 is 20 μm˜180 μm and d3+d2+d1 is 30 μm˜240 μm. The etching selectivity ratio of the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 100 to the silicon oxide layer 101 is greater than 200:1, therefore the silicon oxide layer 101 is rarely etched during the process of etching. Thereby even though the thickness of the silicon oxide layer 101 is quite small, the depth of the silicon trench formed may satisfy the requirements of design.

After that, the silicon oxide layer 101 may be removed by a wet etching using conventional HF acid or BOE etching solution, thereby the first silicon trench, the second silicon trench and the third silicon trench with different widths and depths required by the design of products are obtained. The specific structure thereof is shown in FIG. 9.

The second embodiment is described in detail below in connection with FIGS. 10 to 15.

Firstly, referring to FIG. 10, a MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200 is provided, and a silicon oxide layer 201 is formed on the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200 as the first mask layer. Wherein the silicon oxide layer 201 may be formed by methods of thermal oxidation or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the like, and has a thickness of 4000 Å˜8000 Å.

Then referring to FIG. 11, photoethch and etch the silicon oxide layer 201 to form the first etching window D1 in the silicon oxide layer 201. Specifically, the etching equipment may be Rainbow4500 from LAM corporation, and the etching gases may be CF4, CH3F and Ar.

Referring to FIG. 12, an photoresist layer 202 is formed on the silicon oxide layer 201 as the second mask layer, photolithograph and etch the photoresist layer 202 and the silicon oxide layer 201 beneath the photoresist layer 202, to form the second etching window D2 in the photoresist layer 202 and the silicon oxide layer 201 beneath the photoresist layer 202. Wherein the thickness of the photoresist layer 202 may be 2 μm.

Referring to FIG. 13, the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200 is etched by using the photoresist layer 202 as a mask to form the first silicon trench with a depth of d2 in the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200. The etching equipment may be AMS200 from Alcate corporation, and the etching gases are SF₆ and C₄F₈. The etching process may be Bosch process known in the field of MEMS, i.e., a process in which etching and the passivation are performed alternately. The depth d2 may be 10 μm˜100 μm.

After that, the photoresist layer 202 may be removed by a dry process in an oxygen plasma atmosphere to expose the silicon oxide layer 201.

Referring to FIG. 14, the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200 is etched by using the silicon oxide layer 201 as the mask to form the second silicon trench with a depth of d1 in the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate 200, and the depth of the first silicon trench is deepened to d2+d1. The etching equipment may be AMS200 from Alcatel corporation, the depth d1 is 10 μm˜80 μm, and d1+d2 is 20 μm˜180 μm.

After that, the silicon oxide layer 201 is removed to form a structure as shown in FIG. 15, wherein the second silicon trench with a depth of d1 is at the first etching window D1, and the first silicon trench with a depth of d2+d1 is at the second etching window D2.

In the first embodiment described above, silicon trenches with three different depths or aspect ratios are formed by using the silicon oxide layer, the aluminum layer and the photoresist layer as mask layers; in the second embodiment, silicon trenches with two different depths or aspect ratios are formed by using the silicon oxide layer and the photoresist layer as mask layers. Similarly, in other specific embodiments, silicon trenches with four or more different depths or aspect ratios can be formed by using a plurality of the first mask layers and the second mask layers alternating with each other, i.e., the first mask layer and the second mask layer alternate with each other and repeat for several times, wherein the first mask layers are silicon oxide layers and the second mask layers are aluminum layers or silicon nitride layers. For example, silicon trenches with four different depths are formed by using a mask layer structure of silicon oxide layer—aluminum layer or silicon nitride layer—silicon oxide layer—aluminum layer or silicon nitride layer, or silicon trenches with five different depths are formed by using a mask layer structure of silicon oxide layer—aluminum layer or silicon nitride layer—silicon oxide layer—aluminum layer or silicon nitride layer—silicon oxide layer.

Furthermore, it should be noted that the specific materials of each mask layer in the above embodiments are non-limiting examples, as long as the selective etching ratio of the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate to the mask layer is greater than or equal to 10:1 (preferably, between 10:1 to 100:1) during the process of etching the MEMS sealing cap silicon substrate.
